Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this Aluminum 6061 stock sheet measures 0.155 inches in thickness, 28 inches in length, and 17 inches in width. Alloy 6061 is a precipitation-hardened aluminum alloy containing magnesium and silicon as its main alloying elements. It exhibits good formability, excellent corrosion resistance, weldability, and moderate strength. These attributes make it an ideal substrate for various filtering media and structural components within filtration systems, capable of withstanding operational stresses and chemical exposure. The precise dimensional control ensures consistent integration into automated manufacturing processes and guarantees predictable flow dynamics within filtration assemblies.
